What if loss yields the most profit | Roy Meyer | TEDxBreda

Описание: In his Talk Roy talks about how loss is mostly seen as something ugly and undesirable, which leads to decision paralysis or less authentic decisions. But this hasn’t to be like this. Roy explains how he turned his difficult youth situation into a very strong and happy reality.
His insights brought back his ability to see the wonders around him, just as he did when he was a child. Roy hopes he will be an inspiration to others to change their look at life and loss.

Roy Meyer reached the quarterfinals of the past Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro and he is preparing for his next participation in Tokyo 2020. Roy Meyer was born and raised in Breda. Like many other guys he was actually interested in playing football, but afterwards, he found out that judo was closer to his personality and expectations. He didn't have an easy journey to become the great athlete that he is now. He went through very rough times in his youth, a few encounters with the justice system and finally he found a path of self-discovery studying psychology and religion.
